Apple may have revealed additional details about the iPad on Friday, but perhaps a more interesting revelation came in the form of regulatory filing regarding Apple Chief Operating Officer Tim Cook.
You may recall that CEO Steve Jobs took a six-month leave of absence in 2009 due to medical issues, and that Cook ran the day-to-day operations of Apple during that time. Apparently, Apple’s board of directors remembers that time as well.
The Wall Street Journal reports that Friday’s filing shows Cook was awarded a bonus package worth $22 million—which comes out to $3.6 million a month while filling in for Jobs.
